Genius Design
Designer uses their own experience and knowledge to anticipate user behavior. Needs past decisions in order to inform current decisions.
Designer knows best.

Empathic Design
Begins with contextual inquiry and in-depth user research. Results are analysed and synthesized to uncover user needs, and decisions are driven by these insights.

TerminologyWhat’s the difference?
User Experience Design – Mostly used in reference to digital products but is actually a very broad term. Is a specific practice.
User-Centered Design – In theory, interchangeable with human-centered design but usually used in reference to digital products
Human-Centered Design – Broader scope of systems, products (digital and analog), services, and spaces
Other related terminology: interaction design, design thinking, usability, service design, human-computer interaction, participatory design, co-creation, co-design

EmpathicDesign for the needs and motivations of people, not demographics. In addition to listening to the user, put on their shoes and synthesize research to understand their needs. Develop insights into distinct personas that can be designed for.
Instead of designing forwhite suburban women in their mid-thirties who make $60K/yr and have two kids
We design forsocially conscious consumers who want to do what’s best for their children’s future at a reasonable price

SERVICES

SPACES

Design a public transportation service for the visually-impaired.
Design a hospital waiting room to be more accessible for people with prosthetic devices or lost limbs.
Design the interior of an ambulance to increase survival rate.
Human-centered design can be applied to anything. It asserts that problems have context and the solutions need to acknowledge that context in order to be effective.

MULTIDISCIPLINARY / INTERDISCIPLINARY
Individuals in teams have many skills, and/or teams are made up of people with varied backgrounds.
TEAMS
People come together to solve problems. Stakeholders can include clients, SMEs (subject matter experts), designers, policy-makers, etc.
Human-centered design acknowledges expertise in specialized fields while breaking down silos. An isolated group of experts will not be as effective as experts from multiple disciplines who can understand each other and work together.
*Co-creation / Participatory Design – taking this principle a step further to design solutions with the users
Design a smart prosthetic device that empowers and enables wearers.

CriticismsComment
“It’s just a fad.”
“It doesn’t yield measurable results.”
“Ain’t nobody got time for that.”
“Anyone can do it.”
“It’s too localized.”
Response
Time will tell, but it hasn’t been on the decline yet.
Agreed: verifiable weakness. People need to see clear qualitative and quantitative value in order for HCD to become widely adopted, and we need to do better here.
We agree that it takes time. We also think that it’s worth the resources to make sure the solution fits the need.
A 7-week design charrette does not a human-centered designer make. “A little learning is a dangerous thing.” – Alexander Pope
Agreed: Depending on the challenge, HCD is not designed for scale. This is still being explored.

Evaluation
HCD is not the solution to everything It’s a method, not a science, and one of many methods at that. Not everything's a nail for this particular hammer, but there’s a lot of potential here.
Trending hybrid approachesA common model is the use of Genius Design with a sprinkle of Empathic Design to validate decisions. Transitional approaches like this are beneficial for institutions where creative problem solving is not part of the culture.
Emerging purist human-centered designers Purist UX and human-centered designers advocate for the user before considering strategic organizational priorities. Designers should to be able to balance priorities to be a successful design leader.
Disappearing designer syndromeBy designing for the user, do we run the risk of standardizing style and creativity? How can we embrace HCD while evolving the practice of design?
Human-centered design is pretty useful and definitely embodies philosophies that we should be striving for.

EvaluationHow can we grow?
1. Build a stronger bridge between design research outcomes and design decisions.
2. Increase understanding of what design decision style gets applied to a situation and why.
3. Improve our feedback loop and refine our criteria for success, both externally and internally.
